over the course of 41 seasons survivor has produced many memorable players whether it's
due to them being great at the game being a big time personality or a combination of both there
are multiple players every season that integrate their name in survivor lore for the impact their
presence added to survivor however unfortunately there are also some players that play survivor who
are memorable for all the wrong reasons whether it's because they have a nasty attitude they're
a quitter or made a dumb move that still gets made fun of over 10 years later but whether players are
remembered for the good or bad things they did in the game at the end of the day they are still
remembered by the hardcore and casual fans alike but with that said not every player and survivor
can make an impact with even players who make the finale being forgotten about within a year
simply due to them just being there and not really adding much to the season but despite some players
having an on paper boring survivor resume there's one or two very unique things about these players
that have made them iconic in one way or another two survivor fans what's going on guys i'm flip
masters and today we'll be looking at 10 survivor players who are remembered for the oddest reasons
whether there's a unique stat about them or they did something completely out of nowhere
these 10 survivors aren't exactly known for breaking the game like wrestle hands per se
but they still have a place in survivor history for one reason or another so with that said
let's take a look at all those odd reasons we start off with julie berry from survivor
vanuatu despite making it to the final five julie wasn't exactly the most interesting
character in the world especially considering she was sandwiched in between the iconic amy
and the final four characters of animal 2 were all far more important players that season
than julie still though there's no denying how attractive julie was in vanuatu and boy did she
take advantage of it she self-immediately used her assets to her advantage and many people tap her as
the original property and julie was so attractive that even jeff probst couldn't contain himself and
after the season jeff got into contact with julie and shortly thereafter the two started dating
yes believe it or not the host of survivor fell in love with one of the contestants while there's
not much info out there that really dives into their relationship the two actually dated for
nearly three years but eventually ended their relationship in 2008 still i'm sure dating
jeff probs is a dream for many females who play survivor and out of all the attractive females
to play survivor it's julie berry that holds the distinction of being the girl that got jeff to
break she may not have won the million but man she'll always be a legend julie tribe has spoken
we're going all the way back now to season one with number nine to talk about the one and only
sean knife now to be fair it is pretty tough to call any players from borneo unmemorable since
survivor's first season was literally a global phenomenon and while pretty much all players from
borneo are memorable in some regard nobody has an odder reason for being remembered than sean
not only was shawn the odd man out in the toggy alliance but his voting strategy is unanimously
considered the oddest strategy used in survivor history due to nobody really knowing how to
play the game combined with the fact that nobody wanted to hurt each other's feelings sean decided
to make his strategy as fair as possible and that was to vote in alphabetical order
yep starting with colleen at the merge every name shawn wrote down after was based on whose
name came up next alphabetically this is what caused greg and jenna to be the next ones to go
as the talkie4 realized that they would always have the majority if they voted with sean
for all the legendary figures in borneo like all the final four sweetheart colleen and the
hilarious greg sean is right up there with all the legends for his alphabet strategy and i think i
can safely say it's a strategy that will never be replicated i am not really employing any strategy
i'm going voting for colleen today i love her she's cute adorable and nice to look at and fun
to have around but she's the first in a long list of alphabetical order and she won't get another
vote for me unless she pisses me off or something but it's her turn today being the first alphabet
at number eight is the noble one chris noble now of course chris was a big time character
in ghost island the most noteworthy player from that season outside of diamond wendell
and speaking of dom his rivalry with chris is easily the highlight of the season
and is often considered one of the best rivalries in survivor history
not to mention chris deciding not to play his idol at the merge is often on par with james
as the worst non-idol play in survivor but since chris unbelievably decided not to play his idol
at least he got a fun survivor stat out of it that will most likely never be broken chris became
the first survivor contestant ever to be voted out while not casting a single vote all season
in the pre-merge his tribe won almost every mini challenge with him going to ghost island and the
one they didn't win so the merged travel council was chris's first tribal yet he still didn't cast
a vote not only was it stupid for chris to not play his idol when he knew he was getting boats
had only two travels to play it and his rival literally played an idol but chris himself
couldn't do anything votes wise as he lost his vote in the game of chance on ghost island so
whether you remember chris for his rivalry of dom or severe case of overconfidence he will always be
remembered as the only player in survivor history to go home without casting a vote all season and
add the cherry on top he can't even rap oh yeah and finally somebody had to say it i'll say it
stop rapping you're trash that rabbit you're garbage outright you can't rap you have no bars
put the mic down bro put the pen down bro use an eraser
at number seven is the seven foot tall mitchell now mitchell has a couple fun facts about him
his seven foot tall frame makes him the tallest contestant ever but mitchell also holds the
distinction as the first player and survivor to be voted out without receiving the majority vote
in a game changing moment and not only this season but the history of survivor tina got kobe to flip
to her and keith's side on the ride to tribal council forcing a 3-3 tie and since survivor
hadn't thought of a way to go about tiebreakers this early in the series they decided to go
the past mistakes route jeff informed keith and mitchell that their past would decide their future
and the player with the most past votes would go home and due to a hinky vote from keith at
the previous tribal council that boat saved keith and sent mitchell home in the pre-jury mitchell's
very unfair elimination ended up causing a massive butterfly effect the alliance that was formed here
in keith colby and tina ended up being the final three with tina of course winning the season kobe
becoming the first survivor hero and this allowed keith to hold the record for most average amount
of days played in survivor survivor also changed its rules regarding the trip to tribal council
and players could no longer talk to each other on the way there and even though survivor didn't
directly fix it after mitchell survivor eventually realized how unfair it was to send someone home
without a majority vote and eventually made the much more fair rock draw role instead to
settle a tiebreaker don't say it flynn don't say it oh fine mitchell for game changers too
at six is jaime from survivor guatemala to be frank survivor guatemala is unanimously
considered survivor's most forgotten season with dany being the only newbie player to ever
return and pretty much all players from guatemala minus the select few have been
completely forgotten about in survivor lore but jaime made a name for himself
in guatemala in quite the loud fashion he and bobby john had a heated rivalry during
the season and argo became the closest we've ever seen to castaways actually duking it out
but not only is jaime remembered for his extremely short temper but he officially
made the word blindside a universal term in the survivor world jamie
try bespoke blindsided nice now that's how you vote somebody out
now we hadn't seen the term blindside used before but it was until jaime's final impression that the
word blindside became a regular term in survivor and i would even argue turn the gameplay up a
notch for future seasons to come as players either wanted to pull off a sweet blind side on someone
else or they wanted to be blindsided instead of being told they were going home i'm sure jaime
is a nice guy but sometimes that's the way it goes your worst moments are the ones that people
remember the most one of the things that always drags down micronesia as being in the kagion and
heroes vs villains tier of seasons for survivor is that some people think the pre-merge is a little
boring but one thing this pre-merged did give us is one of the funniest moments in survivor history
chet is already memorable for a bunch of wrong reasons he's often ranked with the likes of giutia
and dan when it comes to challenge performance and his quit basically killed amy's game but there was
one moment in chet's game that not only summed up his lack of challenge abilities but i'm sure is
also a big reason why he would go on to quit the game joel trying to drag chet takes a hard fall
keep moving 30 seconds 4 3 2
i mean i hate to laugh at the pain of others but man is this funny at four is angie from
survivor philippines angie lasted only three episodes in season 25 but in that time she made
quite the impact her looks were so stunning that even malcolm a great survival player
couldn't contain himself when it came to her but what makes angie so great is a simple answer to
jeff at tribal council finish that same sentence if i could change one thing about this tribe
that we could have cookies
to be honest after watching mad seeing maybe they could have used a few extra cookies couldn't have
hurt sticking with survivor philippines pre-merged boots here we now have dawson the fifth boot of
the season and being that she was the fifth boot and was on the collarbon tribe the least
interesting tribe out of the three you would think dawson would be an absolute nobody and
to be honest she pretty much should be i mean she was the only one to recognize jeff ken so that's
something but other than that even a super fan like myself couldn't tell you a single thing about
her but the reason why dawson became so remembered was due to well quite the interesting exit
dawson the trouble spoken
at number two is a player who changed the game for ladies her age for years to come simply by
just looking pretty and that is michaela wingle michaela is remembered by survivor fans for being
at the crossroads of brandon hands and yeah being targeted by one of the least stable human beings
to ever play survivor who also just so happens to be the nephew of russell hands is going to make
you hot topic in the survivor world but the reason why brandon was so gung-ho on michaela was due
to her reminding him of parvati who was obviously fresh on his and his uncle's mind brandon compared
michaela to parvati in a dangerous way was the unintentional birth of a new strategy amongst
survivor players for the next decade and that was to target the young and attractive girl
simply because she gave off vibes that she could use her looks and charm to her advantage and be
a poverty 2.0 michaela came into survivor being her charmful self and because of that not only
did she get the ambiguous distinction of being the first ever parvy 2.0 but this label put a bullseye
on many young females and survivor for the next decade i call her poverty because she's using her
seductive ways in her young girl attitude to kind of get people in and get attention it's the
ones that are good looking and seductive that you want to get rid of michaela the tribe has spoken
at number one is everyone's favorite metalhead billy garcia billy was the second boot of survivor
cook islands which is usually one of the most forgettable boots of every season but billy didn't
just become a memorable player during his short stay he became a freaking survivor legend after
being lazy the first six days i2 had no choice but to throw a challenge to get rid of billy
but even though billy was an outcast on his tribe he did find his true love on survivor
we love you i love you
my prize was that i i fell in i i fell in love in this game love at first sight her name is
candice and uh in between candace from rural tribes yeah after the last challenge we sort
of mouthed the words i love you to one another and so that was my prize and my prize was her
he may not have won the cook islands but i think billy garcia is the true winner of the season
